Richard Atkinson analyzes the magnificent counterpoint in the opening movement of Mozart's Prague Symphony, no. 38 in D major, K. 504, culminating in the development section, during which many of the previously introduced themes are combined at once in invertible counterpoint. This is a fair use educational commentary that uses excerpts from the following recordings/performances:
Mozart: Symphony, no. 38 in D major, K. 504, “Prague”
• Mozart - Symphony No. ...
Mozart: Overtures to The Magic Flute and Don Giovanni
Sir Neville Marriner, Academy of St. Martin in the Fields
Haydn: Symphony No. 80 in D minor
Orpheus Chamber Orchestra
Haydn Symphony No. 81
Australian Chamber Orchestra, Sir Charles Mackerras
Beethoven: Sonata for Pianoforte, Op. 31 No. 2 in D minor, “Tempest”
Evgeny Kissin, Pianoforte
Mozart: Serenade in D major, K. 320, "Posthorn"
Sir Charles Mackerras, Prague Chamber Orchestra
Mozart: "Pa-Pa-Pa-Pa-Pa-Pa-Papagena!" Duet from The Magic Flute • Mozart - Magic Flute (...
Mozart: Canon, “O du eselhafter Martin!” KV 560
Nicol Matt, Chamber Choir of Europe
00:00 - Exposition section
15:04 - Development section
22:31 - Recapitulation section

This is slightly unrelated to the video but I feel like the Mozart-Haydn relationship is like a friendship between the two class clowns (in a good way). Mozart's humor is "funny because weird" and Haydn's humor is "funny because witty". And when they borrow from each other it's like they're setting up each other's jokes. I particularly like how eccentric Mozart is.

Extraordinary analysis of one of the most beautiful symphonies written by Mozart!! To me always this movement of Mozart reminds me of 1º movement of Beethoven’s 7th Symphony, I would not know how to say why, perhaps his cadence, the use of timbales, I have no knowledge of music theory, it is just an appreciation. Congratulations on this magnificent work!!

I have next to no knowledge of music theory, but I have thought for years this is one of Mozart's heaviest most powerful musical inventions. It just really 'howls' at points. There was something very heavy on Mozart's mind that he expressed on this piece. I had an intuition that this music has something to do with his Father. (It was written just months before his fathers death) I cannot say exactly why I feel that, but there was something in it that made me think of my own father. It expresses some harrowing battle in the soul, but ends up being such an ode to perseverance. I could listen to this counterpoint development on repeat for hours and get chills every time. Thank you for posting this. It is fascinating to see the written notes be broken down by the different themes and how it transforms into such 'magnificent' music expressing the light after the dark. I really admire your video's helping break down such fantastic music!

Richard, please do the first movement of Mozart's String Quintet K.515. As you surely know, there's some interesting counterpoint in the stunningly beautiful development section of that movement, but the abundance of themes and the length of that movement are remarkable. You'd probably run out of colors highlighting the themes. :D

As a lover of classical music I already listened to so many of your exhilarating und unbelievably meticulous and thoughful discussions of classical music so that I can truthfully say that I have learned more about classical music and counterpoint from your channel than from most books I have ever read! This time it struck me like a lightning: I have been listing to the Prague Symphony for more than 20 years but never understood why the ending of the exposition is excellent music but the recapitulation really took me into another sphere. Now I learn from your analysis about two alterations, the variant in the high violins explained at 24:11 and the pink countertheme in the low voice explained at 24:30 - and exactly these two altered voices always gave me this extra kick when I heared the recapitulation! My "litte mystery" finally solved after 20 years! Thank you again for the most valuable channel on KZfaq!

After Beethoven wrote his late B-flat string quartet (Op. 130) he expressed great satisfaction with the advances he had just made in his compositional technique. No one to my knowledge has ever commented on what seems patently obvious to me: that the first movement of that work reflects deep study of this particular movement by Mozart.

A magnificent video on magnificent counterpoint! Many thanks for another Richard Atkinson classic 👍12:02 I'm really interested in your observation about the similarity to the Tempest given that a) we know Beethoven sometimes liked to use motivic fragments from other works as a starting point for improvisations/compositions b) the themes in the Tempest are all inter-related, meaning that if Beethoven was using this melodic idea consciously, it must surely have been his starting point for the whole sonata 🤯

The turquoise theme at the end with its inversion and its subsequent return at the recap. are like proto-Mahlerian in intensity. There are some conductors who take this mvmnt a bit slower and draw out that passage’s tension, giving more credence to that observation.

Speaking of Beethoven and the Prague Symphony, it was over 30 years ago that Roger Kamien who suggested that the slow introduction to the first movement (which is not discussed in this video) possibly served a model the slow intro of Beethoven's 2nd Symphony. Others who published essays about this masterwork are: Elaine R. Sisman, László Somfai and Susan McClary.

I often feel that, in some minor ways, this symphony is more successful than the Jupiter, because the ideas flow more effortlessly. Maybe it's a flaw in performance, but the Jupiter's great finesse sometimes seems more labored by comparison. But this is not a knock on the later symphony, just a matter of personal preference.

Mozart outdid everyone else in every genre. I mean it's incredible that as well as genius symphonies, quartets, concertos and solo sonatas, he also wrote Operas not really matched again in musical / dramatic fusion until Wagner. Listen to his lesser contemporaries and you realize how unfunny the 'Musical Joke' actually is. Sometimes I watch these videos and it is literally to much - like you cannot sit and stare into dazzling beauty for to long in case it burns your brain.

I think most similarities of symphonic contrapuntal writing can be drawn between Michael Haydn and Mozart. Look at this Michael Haydn 33rd symphony kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jcqPp6qfyLOnY2Q.html written in Salzburg the same year Mozart wrote his 38th. Compare his 31th kzfaq.info/get/bejne/fdSqe86mm8esiXk.html with Mozart's 41th kzfaq.info/get/bejne/naedqptyudLSZmw.html Mozart copied out (with K.291) the finale of Michael Haydn's 23rd before writing his K.387 finale. Many parts of this Michael Haydn 28th symphony kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hp6qgapnvbHbYXU.html sound similar to Mozart's 41th. Also listen to Michael Haydn's overture symphony 36th, written months before Mozart's 39th. I agree with H. C. Robbins Landon's hypothesis that Mozart knew Michael's final set of symphonies before writing his own 3 final symphonies.
